“They have been billed as Asia’s latest unmissable tourist attractions, and these pictures prove they can be seen from miles around. Man-made ‘Supertrees’ as tall as skyscrapers are lighting up the night sky over Singapore. The towering structures, stretching 164ft into the sky, have giant steel and concrete trunks and thousands of thick wire rods for branches. They form part of the Gardens By The Bay project, a massive $438million development in the city’s Marina Bay area. Fitted with solar panels, hanging gardens and rainwater catches, the trees will be used to display plants from across the globe.” w/ photos
